Thoughtfully laid out accommodation ensures a relaxing stay for three in this charming studio apartment, happily hosting a couple and their much-loved canine companion. Set tails wagging with days spent sniffing out adventure in the Brecon Beacons National Park, letting Fido lead the way along waymarked pathways and stunning waterside routes. At the end of each day, you'll be happy to head home and put your feet up right here, letting sleeping dogs lie in this characterful space.

Featuring high vaulted ceilings and windows that flood the space with natural light, this studio space is a joy to behold as soon as you arrive. Your four-pawed pal will enjoy having their two beloved masters within close confines, no doubt curling up in a cosy spot as you switch on the Smart TV or enjoy a board game for two. Be sure to cook a little extra when preparing meals in the galley kitchen, slipping your doggo some scraps as you sit down to enjoy a hearty meal inside or out. And, once the evening draws to a close, climb into the cushy double bed and start dreaming of adventures yet to be had.

Boasting a fantastic location in the South Wales countryside, this property is just 2.5 miles from the characterful town of Hay-on-Wye. Take your pooch for a gentle stroll along the River Wye or stop off in one of the many pup-friendly pubs. From here the many wonders of the Brecon Beacons sits waiting to be explored.

We had a very comfortable stay at the Studio. Sarah and Jim were very welcoming and helpful. The property was warm, cosy and well equipped. It is also located close to Hay on Wye which is definitely worth a visit.

Sarah was an exceptional host. Really helpful with things to do around the area. Her two dogs, Diva (super friendly girl) and Stanley (a little nervous and barked but totally harmless) were both adorable and great with my little dog, Heidi. The studio is the perfect retreat, whether you just want to laze around all day or get out and about. It is tRead morehe perfect place and the gardens are extensive - where Heidi was allowed to roam around freely. Youneed a car to get out and explore the area. Hide
